Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of additional Government expenditure arising from the war in Ukraine in each of the past three years.

Following Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine over three years ago, the UK has committed £21.8 billion for Ukraine.

The UK has been at the forefront in providing military, financial and humanitarian support to Ukraine for as long as it takes. This has included:

• £13 billion in military support - including our £2.26 billion ‘Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration’ Loan which will be repaid using profits generated on holdings of immobilised Russian Sovereign Assets in the EU
• £5.3 billion in non-military support including bilateral assistance and fiscal guarantees
• £3.5 billion cover limit in export finance via UK Export Finance for reconstruction and defence projects

The UK will continue to honour the Prime Minister’s commitment to provide Ukraine with £3bn of military support each year until the end of the decade or for as long as needed. Securing a lasting peace for Ukraine is in the UK and wider Europe’s economic and security interests.
